Topic	More proof that the real "cancel culture" comes from the right
sevihaimerej 08/02/21 6:11:36 PM #15:	Gwynevere posted... "I was wrong, but will double down to show how I'm actually right" lmao shut the fuck up Whenever "the left" tries to cancel someone/something, it's typically because the subject in question attempts to normalize or push problematic viewpoints, usually someone being hateful in some way, and it usually doesn't result in anything meaningful happening anyway Right wing cancellation has included incredibly wide sweeping campaigns like McCarthyism and Satanic Panic, which end up having real consequences to normal people, not just celebrities and businesses. Left wing cancel culture doesn't go after average Joe, so it's not in the least bit comparable I only use "the left" since the OP generalized "the right" as some monolith, only slightly inaccurate in this case but lazy generalizations are never good. I admitted I was wrong about a person's identity, that only nullified the voracity of around 4% of the overall meaning of my post so I just went with it. Also agree "the right" goes in pretty hard with their style of cancel culture, not here to fight you on any of that, just that there is a rot on the progressive side of things that is exactly the same beast as the outrage culture of the right. Humans love drama, humans love feeling self righteous, humans love defeating a perceived evil, my thing is I don't believe in evil...the devil is just a misunderstood lighthouse keeper after all. I just don't like left wing cancel culture, more because of the strange effects it has on the participants than about the actual targets, analyzing the Lindsay Ellis (YouTuber) situation was what initially brought me to make these observations so that's kinda what brings us here. I get it though, this kinda stuff probably doesn't fascinate or concern you in the way it does me and that's fine, I could be wrong and Twitter could be slowly helping these people evolve into beings with godlike abilities, but to me it does seem like insanity most of the time and think Twitter should be studied so we can make sure it isn't the manifestation of some Lovecraftian deity --- https://imgtc.com/Y8ojZ3x <cite>sevihaimerej posted [p:956711862] in More proof...
